What a great day. I shot it Sunday morning and then in the afternoon headed down the street to Chokecherry Canyon to watch the finals of the ARCA Extreme Rock Crawling Series event. I could hear the roaring engines and whooping all morning while painting as the canyon is within eye shot of my house.
Imagine me leaving my fresh, new paint job to cure, then 15 minutes later witnessing the mass body panel destruction occuring there.
It looked like my CJ was not the only one that got shot this weekend.
There had to have been a record number of lay and roll overs at this event.
Many of the bright and shiny whole hog CJ crawlers had looked like they had been in an artillery battle! Especially tragic was the roll over of the beautiful Currie Enterpises CJ-7. Many drivers who escaped a roll or lay over are going home with major body damage - both sides! The sandstone boulders were especially hungry for front fender and door-to-wheel panels.
I went home shaking my head, thinking "Hell maybe I don't want that Dana 60 afterall!!!.... well, at least not for a little while ...
